[Bit 1]

Yeah, I saw a guy outside earlier
look just like the singer of Green Day.
I was like, "Hey, Billy Joe, what's up, man?"
He was like, "What?"
I was like, "Billy, Green Day, big fan."
He was like, "No, no."
I mean, I was like, "Are you sure, man?
and he looked just like him.
And he was like, "Nah, dude, I'm sorry."
I was like, "Dude, you're wearing a Green Day T-shirt."
And he goes, "Look, man, I'ma level with you.
"I'm homeless.
"I found this shirt in the dumpster.
"I don't even know this man.
"I'm just trying to stay warm, all right?"
I said, "My mistake, man."
That's when I started walking off and he was like,
"Wait, one more thing."
I said, "What's that?"
And he pointed a cup towards me and he said,
"Do you have a dime?"
I said, "Billy Joe."
It was him.
At least I think it was him.
He did smell like Dookie.

[Bit 2]

I used to think that homeless people
were just folks on strike against bathing
with their signs and whatnot.

[Bit 3]

Isn't tea just coffee on his period?
With that string and whatnot?
